After logging out, I practiced martial arts and ate breakfast, nothing much happened as I am doing those things.
My body feels lighter and with more vitality than usual. My strength also plummeted due to unknown reasons.
I haven't noticed these changes earlier but this is definitely not normal.
"Theo, the deputy director asked you to go into the FBI headquarters at Washington D.C. Are you coming?" said Gaius as he ate the strawberry ice cream in his hands.
"Do you know why?" I asked as I continued walking down the hallway. Brother followed me as he licks his ice cream.
"Well, they said that they want you to get along with other official members now and study the body language and etc... He said that you'll be also a trainee detective of the FBI. You'll be under some officer..." said Gaius.
'Well, the school also told me that I am absolutely going to move up the fourth year. Vacation is also getting nearer.'
"Sure, when?" I stopped walking and looked at my brother.
"Anytime!" He said as he walked away while licking his strawberry ice cream.
''He really likes strawberry, huh?' I chuckled inwardly as I continued walking towards my room.

22:00
After practicing assassination techniques inside my room, I took a bath.
"Huh?" I exclaimed as I noticed a paragraph in the official article of the Olympus while lying on my bed.
The article stated about every new feature or hidden feature that is opened by several players.
I read it and saw the part of the orbs.
Orbs are the seal of any living being and it stated that you can use its power if you gained the sealed orb's trust since the orb or the creature inside of that orb is still conscious.
'There is such a thing? Then, I can use the [Raijin]'s power once I gained his trust?' I excitedly said inwardly.
"Well, l will find out soon but first, we will first meet at the mountain where our guild branch is founded. The treasure hunt will start at 00:00 in real-world so we will meet earlier before it starts." I stood up and walked towards the capsule.
Just like I usually do, I lied down inside and said, [Immersed Diving Start]
[Executing...]
[Executed]
The cold woman's voice ringed through my ears and when I opened my eyes once again, I am inside the game.
[Welcome back to Olympus]
I immediately saw Ashton sleeping below the tree while he is on his small form.
I took him slowly and placed him in my head. His current size is like a puppy's size after all.
I walked freely in the forest as I feel the nature surrounding me.
The heat of the sun. the warmth of the trees and the cold breeze of the wind coming from the sea is making me too comfortable!
As I stroll in the forest, I encountered a lot of [Dryads] and other creatures created by the [World Tree]
Some of them are living trees themselves. They have eyes and mouths in their trunks and they can talk using those, just like normal creatures does.
'There is still a lot of things to explore in this world...' I smiled inwardly as I noticed that I already arrived at the mountain.
***
I yawned as I walked towards the peak of the mountain.
I noticed that there are people occupying the tables and benches. Based on their clothes and silhouette, they are part of the guild.
"You are finally here, Theo!" Levy shouts as he saw my figure and waved his hands.
"Well, I walked from the south towards here, you know?" I replied straightforwardly as he continued, "You have Ash--"
He immediately stopped talking after he noticed Ashton sleeping comfortably on my shoulders.
I opened the capsule and forced him to enter it.
"I summoned the [Kraken] earlier, come to think of it, we have the information gatherer in the air already, right?" I asked as I occupied a seat next to Chase.
"Ah, the [Griffons] and some dragons. I made a friend to them in the first place... Well, I am impressed that you made the mythological creature of the sea become your summon..." Levy replied as he stared at Lizie who is also occupying a seat at another table.
In our table. there is Levy, Chase, and Xavier. On the other table, there is Lizie, Fiona, Luna, and Faith are occupying the seats while Helena is standing up near them, listening to their conversation.
Meanwhile, Austin, Tyler, Carter, and Shawn occupied the third table, having their own conversation.
"By the way, you created all of this alone?" Xavier asked as he stood up to me and stared at me very closely.
"Yeah? Why?" I asked while I am looking at his handsome face.
"I-it is just unbelievable that you created it..." He said as he sits back.
"Come to think of it, it seems like you've met Lizie already" I stared at Lizie who is conversing with the other girls.
"Ah? Yeah, we accepted her though," said Xavier as he also stared at Lizie.
He continued, "Her damage is insane, it is not as powerful as my skills but it is superior to any other fire mages there. Helena also said that she is more powerful than her but in battle, Helena will win because Helena balances defensive and offensive stats... And on top of that, it seems like interviewed her already and she said that you said that she will meet us today. I trusted you but I wonder what kind of questions you've asked?"
"Desire... Plus, my new ability [Sage Eyes] can see through lies and when you combined it with [Appraisal], I can see through her personality or traits." I said as I activated my [Sage Eyes], making my red eyes turned into a golden one.
"Oh, that is a great skill! If that is true, then, let us have you interview the potential members so that no spies can infiltrate. Ask them random questions and see through their personalities." I touched my temple as I heard what Xavier just said.
"Sure but I am traveling through the seven kingdoms..." Xavier picked up something and handed it over to me.
'This is-- a [Guild Necklace]?' I remembered what it is.
It is the item that is usually being provided by the guild leader once our guild finished some of the requirements. As far as I know, the requirements are something like reach a level 3 star guild and then some materials.
It seems like those requirements are fulfilled and they successfully created the [Guild Necklace]
[Guild Necklace] are the necklaces for every guild that can change its appearance based on one's personality and skills. It can also be used as a teleportation scroll, but it was only one-way teleportation.
In the beta test, my necklace looks like a snowflake but now that I have a lot of skill, I don't know what will the necklace manifest.
I wore it and then after closing the locks, the necklace glowed silver-blue, and then, the necklace's pendant changed into a majestic dragon.
"Looks very cool, it is suitable for your dragon-like armor and wings!" Levy compliments as he saw the dragon pendant in my necklace.
"With that, you can teleport back to the guild. You can interview a member every Saturday or Sunday since weekdays are always a busy day..." Xavier said as he smiled widely.
"Okay," I replied with a thumbs-up.
***
Before hitting 12:00 noon in this world, the system immediately notified all of the players all around this world.
The 100--or 101 members of the guild are now present and we already formed our teams as we are conversing earlier.
The [Twelve Kings] will go towards the nearby empires and territory while the members will stay here with their respective teams.
Since there are a total of 7 empires and 5 independent territories such as [Ingracia Territory], we chose one kingdom to find treasures there.
If we found a treasure or something similar like that, we will choose between three things: First, you can keep it for yourself. Second, you can give it to someone in the guild and the last one is to donate it to the guild.
[The [Treasure Hunting Event] will commence in 5 minutes]
"Let's choose an empire we are going to..." Xavier said as the [Twelve Kings] gather around, forming a circle-shaped formation.
"How about let's choose the kingdoms we are familiar with? I am not familiar with the [Dragon Empire], I am more familiar with the [Elven Empire]..." Fiona raised her hand as he suggests something that makes sense.
Even though we are in one guild, we are venturing around the continent separately. That means, there must be a member who is familiar with the places in a specific empire...
"I am familiar with the [Ruccus Territory]" Chase said as he raised his hand.
[Ruccus Territory] is an independent territory similar to the [Ingracia Empire] but it is located in the middle part of the [Beastman Empire]
"I'll go in the [Dwarven Empire]" Helena said as she smiled proudly.
'Oh, it is kind of obvious because her skills are definitely from the dwarves... Those fire skills...'
"Then, I'll go with [Princeton Territory]" Xavier raised his hand as we looked at him dumbfoundedly.
[Prineton Territory] is the most mysterious independent territory. The location is also a secret so almost no one knows where it is.
"You know where it is?!" Levy exclaimed as he pointed his fingers towards Xavier.
"Well, I did found it after we founded the guild..." He said with a guilty expression written all over his face.
"Well, forget about it... How about the other empires?..."
We talked about our respective spots before the event starts and decided where we will find treasures.
Fiona will go to the [Elven Empire]
Chase in the [Ruccus Territory]
Helena in the [Dwarven Empire]
Xavier in the [Princeton Territory]
Tyler in the [Dryad Empire]
Carter in the [Demon Empire]
Shawn in the [Mountain of Nowhere], an independent territory where the most ferocious beasts live including evil dragons.
Chase in the [Quiles Territory] where it is the only kingdom or territory that lives underground.
Luna in the [Ingracia Territory]
Faith in the [Fairy Empire]
Levy in the [Beastman Empire] and,
I will find treasures in the [Dragon Empire]
As we know our empires and territories, the notification from the system arrived.
[The [Treasure Hunting Event] will now commence!]
"Let's go!" announced Xavier.
"Yeah!" Every single member in the guild said excitedly.
